Saddleback Valley Art League Spring Show

The Saddleback Valley Art League has a spring art show that just started. The show is in the Mission Viejo Library located at the corner of Marguerite Parkway and La Paz Rd.. I'm proud to have the two paintings shown below in the show:

Pothos Stiil-Life

The Three Amigas

Surfside Quilt Guild Trunk Show February 10th!

 I am very honored to have been asked to do a presentation of my art quilt journey at the Surfside Quilt Guild in Dana Point. I will be doing the presentation one week from today, on February 10th. I have posted below information about the location and time, plus a photo of one of my quilts that I will be showing. I hope to see you there!

Amazon Birds - Work In Progress

This is the project I am currently working on. It is a Fiber Art Wall Hanging of two Macaws. It is a Work In Progress at this point.  

Pears Conversing

This is a painting I recently finished based on a photo I took of some pears. I liked the way the pears were leaning, almost like there was a conversation going on. The painting is gouache on toned paper.

Happy Holidays!

I hope you are enjoying the holiday season. Best wishes to all of us for a wonderful and creative 2026!

"High Society" in Sacred Threads Main Exhibition

 

High Society

This is my homage to vintage linens that I call "High Society". It is made of linens or fabric that I got from my Mother, Grandmother, or in an antique store. This quilt is on display at the Sacred Threads Exhibition in Indianapolis, IN, until November 9, 2025. This exhibition is described as focusing on "expressing life's journeys, joy, spirituality, healing, grief, inspiration, and peace". The exhibition is at the Zion Evangelical UCC. 

BEST OF SHOW! All Is Wright With The World!

 I'm so honored to have been awarded BEST OF SHOW in the Flying Geese Quilters Guild 2025 Quilt Show for my "All is Wright With the World" art quilt, shown below. I never in a million years expected to receive a best of show award. I am overwhelmed and gratified to have received this award. Woo Hoo!
